It took three @cnn writers to compose this article and they still couldn't get it right. @catmnicholls? @AlliRosenbloom? @ZahidM_? Which one of you thinks @NoelGallagher is the @oasis frontman who "quit mid-gig?" Wrong on both counts. Do better.
Check out my @Vanyaland617 interview with @GavinRossdale of @bushofficial ahead of tomorrow's show @LB_Pavilion.

Psyched to see @ThirdEyeBlind tomorrow night in Mansfield. Check out the short preview I did over @Vanyaland617.
We're rolling down to Mansfield for @ThirdEyeBlind at @XfinityCenter; laughing it up with @coreyrodrigues at @LaughBoston in the Seaport; and swimming with sharks watching '#Jaws at @NEAQ.
It's a V3 Weekend, summer style. // @vMichaelv @MickChrysalis

Have the kids of @GavinRossdale started a band or what?
If you were ever like 'I really need a new band to be awesome and also sound like Sixteen Stone-era Bush' then hoooo boy do we have the band for you. h/t @MickChrysalis

If I sign up for @adfreeshows, does that mean episodes of @83Weeks with @HeyHeyItsConrad and @EBischoff won't see the sound drop out every eight words like the episode on @RealKingRegal?
